meaningless drivel that sounds cool

meaningless drivel that sounds cool

A Poem by voidsparrow
"

i had "werewolf" by coco rosie stuck in my head

"
black magic best friend
mother make the trees stop singing
on my window and she did.
pull me aside out into the rain and tell me
life is too damn precious
get out there find your fetish, your niche.
carve a world into your flesh to run and hide in
like all the rest, so shallow dont follow
the way of the world is sin so
put your boots on, work it off son
dont be lazy, they'll get you in your sleep.
time for me to tear my hole in the clouds
angry heart shaped fist guide me through
the writhing summer sick mist
not calloused or cold, just a tad refined
in the ways of emotions, heart on the sleeve
not an option, just a fad entwined
written sideways in the books.
bloody sweater, a souvenier from the showdown
should have seen it, no one came
just my doppleganger and me
punched myself in the face, then sat back
and watched the sun fade.
turn the other cheek just a little too late
time for us to move along, no time for the hate.
black magic best friend, politicians give me
nightmares, waking in a damn cold sweat
so cold i feel the room shiver
make them all stop stealing my life away
the rain drops plucking at my heartstrings
are too much to bare
ill be standing in the corner
come and get me when its over.
